Oh, Chrono is not pleased. Thoughts?

At least if America is going to emulate cinema, I think that they're definitely going after the right genre - I think that Asian horror is some of the most cleanly directed and innovative horror that I've ever seen... And I'm just scratching the surface.

I am more worried about "A Tale of Two Sisters", while it is not one of my favorite movies, i can only imagine how badly Hollywood will butcher it.

But as for Shutter, ehh. It has a Japanese director who has done some fairly good J-Horror movies and i like the idea that it takes place in Japan rather then Thailand (Americans seem to know Japanese culture a bit more).
As for the pg-13 thing you mentioned... i dunno. Do you think the original really deserved an R rating?
I dont.
It did its job quite well with a lack of gore, foul language or sex.
